Pair of Titans lead AFC in Pro Bowl voting at their positions

Voting for the 2023 Pro Bowl has already begun, and some Tennessee Titans players are at the top of their respective positions.

According to Jim Wyatt of Titans Online, running back Derrick Henry is second overall in the voting, but first among backs in the AFC. Henry currently ranks third in rushing yards.

Rookie punter Ryan Stonehouse, who’s off to a sensational start to his career and leads the NFL in gross average punt yards (53.5) by nearly three yards, ranks fourth overall but first in the conference.

The only other Titans who are in the top 10 at their respective positions are defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons, who ranks seventh, and safety Kevin Byard, who ranks 10th.

The biggest surprise is Stonehouse, but not because he doesn’t deserve it. The fact that a Titans punter — of all positions — is making enough noise to garner any kind of recognition nationally is stunning to say the least.

There are at least two more Titans defenders who deserve to make the cut: defensive lineman Denico Autry and linebacker David Long.

Unhappy where Simmons and Byard rank? Think Autry, Long, and/or another Titans player should be in the mix?

Well, you can make your voice heard by voting at the link in the tweet above.
